Wheel vendor?

Anybody know of a good place to find replacement/used wheels that's reasonably priced?

Trying to find a 20" wheel for a 2008 Edge limited. Quote from honest tire place was $400-$450 from his vendors.

Yes, the 7 split-spoke chrome 20".

It has maybe a 1/2" hairline crack coming up from a small rim bend. Loses air slowly over a few days.

Rock Auto has it for 378+ change. Might want to check with places that refurbish wheels and see if it can be repaired. Or there's always JB Weld...

Might be repairable if you haven't checked already, try the place Tim suggested.

That's where I found a rim for a 2016 Camaro. It was ridiculously cheap and brand new take off.
